Northside Expands Sleep Disorders Services

Northside Hospital’s Sleep Disorders Center is pleased to announce the
expansion of its services with additional locations including a
brand-new, state-of-the-art facility in Sandy Springs.

According to the National Sleep Foundation, approximately seven out of
10 Americans are affected by a sleep problem, although most remain
undiagnosed and untreated. Northside Hospital has cared for
Atlanta’s sleep deprived for more than 25 years and was the first fully
accredited sleep center in Georgia.

Over the last year, Northside has made its sleep disorders services
increasingly more accessible to patients. In March 2014, the
hospital moved its original Sleep Disorders Center on Peachtree Dunwoody
to a completely renovated space in the medical offices directly across
the street from the hospital. The new space allows Northside to
grow from a six-bed facility to 10 beds and accommodate more patients.

All sleep rooms give the feeling of a five-star hotel, complete with new
furniture and linens, flat-screen televisions with cable, DVD players,
complimentary WiFi, sound machines and more. Each sleep room is
equipped with a private bathroom and its own thermostat for individual
climate control. Turn-down service with breakfast in bed is
complimentary with all rooms.

Northside’s comprehensive sleep disorders services also include
additional sleep labs in Sandy Springs, Canton and Cumming, as well as
another recently renovated Sleep Disorders Center in Roswell.
Together, these facilities treat more than 1,000 patients a month for
problems such as sleep apnea, insomnia, narcolepsy and more.

“Nearly everyone is going to suffer a sleep problem at some point in
their lives,” said David Westerman, M.D., medical director, Northside
Hospital Sleep Disorders Center. “We hope that these renovations
and expanded services will exceed our patients’ expectations for comfort
and continue to help Northside diagnose and treat sleep problems for
thousands of Atlantans.”
